Reading 11- Doing It

For this reading task, I started to write up my chapter after compiling all of my information from many different resources. Making my chapter on a topic that I am not very educated on was a challenge so I was struggling with knowing what to write and where to put certain areas of the topic within the chapter. I also struggled with having to read through a tonne of different long articles filled with information, to then have to pick out the information that I would need for my topic.


Eventually, after hours of reading articles and searching for information online, I was able to bring together a good amount of information that I would be able to use for my chapter of the book, at this point, I just needed to decide how to structure it all within the chapter and also needed to read through all the information I had compiled and get rid of the pieces that may not have been as important, or needed in my chapter. After doing this I gathered all my resources into a word document and started to write up my chapter and started to put together my references at the end.

Tutorial 06

Personal Screenshot from Unity Hub For this weeks Unity tutorial I had to add a health bar on to the screen of the game, to do this I had to develop a user interface into the game.  To start I had to create a canvas for the health bar by making a rectangle shape and then adding in an image into the space and also used the masking tool to show when he health declines when she's hit. In the second part of the tutorial we had to add in world interactions into the game and also some ray casting, which made the world look a little bit more natural and added in things like shadows to the characters for when they're in different lighting. We also cleaned up our scripts a little bit and just took out some of the code that wasn't needed at this stage.  I found some parts of this week's tutorial quite difficult but I got there in the end. I'm not too sure what else we can add to the game but I look forward to finishing it soon.

Game Jam Reflective Report

 When I first heard about Game Jam at the start of the semester I wasn't too interested in applying to participate because my coding skills and game development skills aren't too strong. But as it got closer to the time of game jam I decided to just apply anyway because it's something I've never done before and it was a chance to meet some new people from other campuses and also to try and strengthen my game design skills over the weekend event. As a whole I really enjoyed the whole weekend and I was really happy with my team, we worked very strongly together and each of us had something different to bring to the team throughout the process.  I think the format of Game Jam was really good, I liked that we were put with people we knew but also people we didn't know, so it wasn't as nerve wrecking having someone you know within the team opposed to being with all strangers. I also liked that it was a 3 day thing and not something stretched over throughout the semes...
